A number of players have informed us that the previously planned Friday (8/21) JV 2/Intramural group tryout presents a conflict; as such, the previously scheduled Friday (8/21) tryout has been postponed. We are seeking another day and time for the tryout. At this point, it appears likely that the tryout will be scheduled for Monday (8/24) morning. We will confirm a place and time as soon as possible.
Please note that the start time for both the Varsity and JV 1 scrimmages vs. Bow tonight will be 5:30pm – players for both teams should be at their respective fields (Varsity<>Turf; JV 1<> Grass) no later than 4:45pm.
Our first four days have been fun and productive – we have a big crowd but all pitched in to make it as smooth as possible. We have a super group of players this year – and we can’t wait to get them going on the field. Hope you had an opportunity to come out and watch the Alum Game last night – it was a good one.
